Yayoi Kusama
When you’ve exhausted the resources of your hometown, move to New York.
The painstaking effort of creation is important.
Confront your fears and explore your hallucinations.

Karim Rashid
Beauty is a collective human need.
Design is a rigorous beautification of our built environments.
“We should be conscious and attune with this world in this moment. If human nature is to live in the past - to change the world is to change human
nature.”
Allen Spector | Directed Research | Tom Klinkowstein
Karim Rashid
Don’t be afraid of color and technology.
Today’s questions are answered with today’s abilities.
Work harder than everybody else.

Helen Pickett
When I listen to music, I have to see the notes dance.
Groups of people congregating on a subway platform inspire the way I group people in a dance
performance.
People interact quickly.What does a 2013 love story look like?

Helen Pickett
The creative process begins with collaboration.
I ask my dancers what doesn’t feel right about a movement and they show me how they would do it
differently.
A dancer must feel a responsibility for their work. This is a new way of approaching traditional ballet
choreography.
